From 2D to 3D Active Vision

  • Chapter
A Few Steps Towards 3D Active Vision

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Information Sciences ((SSINF,volume 33))

Abstract

Let us start to analyse how suitable it is to explicitly use 3D visual cues in an reactive visual task. Let us firstly try to collect a set of studies on this subject and use these experimental and theoretical developments to propose a synthetic view on this problem, completed by some specific experimentations.
